Art Studio Overview:

Soumas Court

Part of a comprehensive site development and plaza design, Soumas Court has become a memorial garden and destination for the city of Perry, Iowa. Many different artist-designed and fabricated elements are integrated throughout the plaza based on its relationship to the Arts and Crafts’ Hotel Pattee. Over 3,000 “nesting” leaves of English Ivy and White Oak create a walking path through the plaza. Individual portrait tiles hang on the wall of the courtyard to honor over one hundred people in the history of the Perry community.
